An Organization of Women that IL Doing
Much Good Work.
The Chicago Women's Club was or
ganized in 1875, chiefly through the
influence of some members of the
Fortnightly, who felt that alongside of
the literary, artistic and social study
done in the Fortnightly. Chicago
women needed an organization for
planning and directing practical work
in any direction needed, and, to cover
this broad purpose, they simply named
it 1.-THE Chicago Women's Club"
The Club IS divided into six commit
tees-Reform, Philanthropy, Home,
Education. Art and Literature, Philos-
ophy and Science.
The Committee on Education gets
kindergartens, manual training and
industrial art teaching discussed in
the club. and, as opportunity permits,
they press these subjects upon the pub
lie attention. They maintain free
kindergarten. On the incoming of
the new reform mayor, last spring,
they presented to him very intluen-
TALLY signed petition asking for the
appointment of women on the School
Board. The mayor, acknowledging
the strength of their petition, said he
felt compelled to fill all the vacancies
on the board for this year with good
business men, but that he would en-
courage the appointment of two
women as assistant superintendent,
and another year would consider the
claims of women to positions on the
School Board. Two women assistant
superintendent were subsequently APP
pointed by the School Board.
The women's Club, in cooperation
with the w. c. L. u, has secured the
appointment of day and night matrons
in the county Jail and police stations.
and woman physician in the lunatic
asylum and poor-house. The visits OF
the members of the Reform Committee
to these county institutions led to the
Chicago Doodle Investigations. These
women, seeing the poor quality of food
and clothing, made complaint to the
State Board of Charities, which led to
an investigation. In the report of the
Investigations made by the State Board
they recognize their obligations to the
Women'.s Club in reaching the facts

WOMEN IN SWEDEN.

Tho Swedish Parliament Recognizes Wom-
ans Worth and Her Kights-A Step In
the Right Direction.
The last session of the Swedish
Rigsdag was productive of several bills
of special interest to women. Herr F.
T. Borg brought forward one to pro-
vide for the election Of Independent
women on poor-law boards and school
boards, and also that resolution
should be passed by the National
Health Department that any woman Of
full age could be elected on the Board
of Health.
The first proposition was supported
by the legal committee, which main
tanned that women, by disposition. as
well as experience, were fit to under
take the duties belonging to the guard
ianship of the poor. They have long
since acquired knowledge and prac-
teal training in the case of the poor,
of whom, moreover. the larger proper
ton are women and children.
With regard to the second proposal
the election of women on school coun-
cils-the committee considered it to
be advisable, inasmuch as women were
teachers in every district. As the mo-
ton passed through the Rigsdag, the
second Chamber voted by one hundred
and one votes against seventy-seven in
favor of the measure.
The committee also approved Of
Herr Borg's proposal that women
should be members of the Boards Of
Health, and the Chamber confirmed it
with thirty-eight votes against twenty
four.
Herr August Bokstrom brought for
ward motion that women should be
taken into the Riksbank Government
Bank). but this. in accordance with a
representation made by the bank, was
rejected without discussion. 1t was
suggested. however, that the Govern
ment ought to ascertain how far wom-
en- could be placed in the smaller
branch offices, the number of which is

proposals to her. These were indig'

man sprang ut her, hit her terrible
blow on the head and felled her to the
ground. Mrs. Getterman fought des'

ragged that he struck her powerful
